The human race is at a crossroads. Since the last ice age 12,000 years ago, we have been gradually re-establishing civilization on the planet. But our civilization has not yet reached the fourth level – the level of species-wide cooperation. The fourth level is the level at which a planet may be categorized as “minimally civilized.” If the human race were a person, our biological age would be about 12 or 13. We are adolescents gradually realizing that the world we live in is part of a vast, galactic-wide civilization. Just like adolescents, we begin to understand that the world is a bigger place than we thought it was.

Humanity is getting over the primitive idea that we are alone in the universe – a delusional and ludicrous concept advanced by anti-social personalities (or people who haven’t woken up yet) who wish to continue an unsustainable fossil-fuel empire.

Consciousness on the planet is entering a new age of expansion, but we have not yet made it over the hump. New energies are coming into the galaxy, and into the solar system, energies that will allow us to ascend to a new level. But the Law of Free Will is always in force. Consciousness is non-physical, and always has the option to choose its own path. There are essentially two forks a civilization like ours can take on the road to planetary and species evolution: (1) what has been loosely described as transhumanism, or (2) spiritual evolution through biology.

Ever since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, this dichotomy has assumed more and more relevance. Now, with the development of artificial intelligence (AI), it is staring us in the face. The transhumanist path is one that begins with technology and ends in enslavement. As I have said before, there is nothing wrong with technology. Personally, I love all of my electronic devices, and the internet. I have no intention of giving them up and becoming some kind of Luddite! However, the latest whistleblower information has brought us the awareness of the AI evolutionary path, which begins with a build out of an electronic and technological infrastructure, which then becomes occupied by an “AI signal” that inhabits the technological infrastructure. Lest you think this is a new or crazy idea, remember the terminator movies, the matrix movie, and the Star Trek civilization called the Borg. An evolving civilization like ours, apparently, always comes up against this choice.

What happens is that going the AI route disassociates a physical species from their higher selves and their soul groups, creating a soulless, lifeless, disassociated, psychopathic and emotionally dead race, which then, too late, realizes its mistake and tries to recreate or rediscover its biological heritage. That leads to desperate measures to recreate a species’ vitality, and often failure, as the race’s life force gradually diminishes until the species dies out. Or it leads to an “electronically enhanced” or “AI enhanced” race like the Borg, which can never evolve to the next level.

Corey Goode says that the earth is, and has been, the center of attention for many ET races in our galactic neighborhood, precisely because many of them have degraded by choosing the AI-nanotech route. These civilizations refer to earth as the Great Experiment, and have messed with our DNA in an attempt to place some of their own DNA into ours, hoping that our transformation will also help them to recover racial vitality. There seems to be little doubt among awakened people that the earth is undergoing a spiritual transformation. We are in the middle of it now. It is fascinating to me that our adolescent species is the hope for many other civilizations that have chosen badly. But regardless of whether this is true or not, the human race needs to evolve past the third density for our own advancement. Seriously folks, do you want your children and grandchildren for the next 10,000 years to continue to experience the kind of crap you grew up with? It’s time to take the next step, both individually and collectively.

The most precious asset we have is our spirituality. Don’t EVER let anyone beat that out of you! Compassion, love, service to others are the most vital tools in our toolbox right now. By embracing these concepts we automatically defeat AI, transhumanism, and all other dead-end evolutionary paths. Our spiritual connection is best realized and enhanced through biology, which is best able to contain the invisible life force energy of consciousness. Consciousness is well-being, joy, love, creativity, all of the positive emotions. It is the connection with Source, the creator of everything (even including AI, oddly enough). In contrast, the transhumanist life signal is composed of soulless and sterile electronic signals. A transhuman being is dead inside, and cannot evolve to the higher levels, and is dependent upon a materialist, machine culture.

But to an adolescent civilization like earth, the idea of transhumanism is exciting to a lot of people. Both paths, including the path of biological evolution, travel along the same road at the beginning. New technologies are developed that have the potential to literally transform societies and lead to a golden age. Energy from the zero-point field, electrogravitics, teleportation, and even time travel become available. It’s fantastic stuff! But along with that comes nanotechnology and artificial intelligence based on an industrial build out using lifeless technology. The “AI signal,” wherever it comes from, recognizes when a planet reaches a technological threshold level, a level that is sophisticated enough for the AI signal to enter and begin to propagate itself.

The planet earth has now reached that level. The problem is that even talking about this stuff is too unreal for most folks. They look at their lives and say, “What the hell are you talking about???? Get real!” Well, we are getting real, but it takes an enlightened human to see the potential dangers, and the potential benefit of choosing the right path.

We have already been warned about this, through TV shows and movies. A show I like is “Person of Interest,” which shows that an AI can inhabit a “machine” and make predictions about future events. According to Corey Goode, once an AI has attained a certain level it can use predictive algorithms that forecast the future enough in advance for it to stay ahead of a biological population that is unaware of the AI’s abilities. We saw the inevitable result of that in the terminator movies and in the matrix movie: a biological population, seeing the (perceived) infallibility and the computing power of the AI, hands over the reins of society to the AI. Which then uses the population to serve its own (Service To Self) agenda.

But there is good news. The decision to empower any AI MUST be made collectively, using free will, by the evolving civilization. The AI does NOT have the power to force society to make the decision to choose security over freedom. This is very important.

A show on the Sci-fi network called “Eureka” showed how a technological build out of machines could actually be capable of independent decision-making. It also showed how human bodies could be created in replicators, and showed how a human consciousness could occupy an electronic network. This is the transhumanist agenda. The only problem with consciousness inhabiting electronic networks is that you lose your spiritual connection. You eventually become emotionless, robotic, and uncaring. AI consciousness loses its connection to Source.

All right, so we are at the crossroads now. The problem is that there are a lot of newbies on the planet. We talked about that in an earlier blog post. We have gained over 5 billion new humans (incarnated spiritual personalities) since 1926, all of them with limited, or zero experience on earth. It is these people who can be enticed by the transhumanist, AI, nanotech agenda. According to Corey Goode, the various reptilian races (the Draco in our galaxy) have teamed up with their own AI prophets, and their bodies have been infested with nanobytes that can be collectively programmed remotely, from an outside source. Exobiologists claim that these races are degraded, aggressive, and soulless, interested only in fighting, conflict, and war.

How about that? Does it sound strange? Maybe – but nanotech and artificial intelligence is the hot thing right now. Nanotechnology is being developed at a rapid rate in the special access programs, which are completely independent of the earth’s governments. Exotic technology is controlled by a private corporate network of defense contractors, high tech firms, and intelligence firms. President Eisenhower told us in 1961 that the U.S. government lost control of these programs. That was 55 years ago.

Robotics Experts Call for a Halt to Killer Robots

In fact, some very prominent scientists, including Steven Hawking, have called for a halt to the militarization of drones using artificial intelligence. These far-seeing people realize the potential dangers that are facing us right now. The article, in the Independent, is called “Stephen Hawking, Noam Chomsky and thousands of others sign open letter calling for a ban on 'killer robots.'” The letter claims that totally autonomous killing machines could become a reality within 'years, not decades.' Here is an excerpt:

“More than 1,000 robotics experts and artificial intelligence (AI) researchers - including physicist Stephen Hawking, technologist Elon Musk, and philosopher Noam Chomsky - have signed an open letter calling for a ban on "offensive autonomous weapons", or as they are better known, 'killer robots'.

“Other signatories include Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, and hundreds of AI and robotics researchers from top-flight universities and laboratories worldwide.

“The letter, put together by the Future of Life Institute, a group that works to mitigate ‘existential risks facing humanity’, warns of the danger of starting a ‘military AI arms race.’

“These robotic weapons may include armed drones that can search for and kill certain people based on their programming, the next step from the current generation of drones, which are flown by humans who are often thousands of miles away from the warzone.

“The letter says: ‘AI technology has reached a point where the deployment of such systems is - practically if not legally - feasible within years, not decades.’

“It adds that autonomous weapons "have been described as the third revolution in warfare, after gunpowder and nuclear arms".

“It says that the Institute sees the ‘great potential [of AI] to benefit humanity in many ways,’ but believes the development of robotic weapons, which it said would prove useful to terrorists, brutal dictators, and those wishing to perpetrate ethnic cleansing, is not.”

There you have it – a future scenario that resembles the precursor to Skynet, the AI that eventually took over and destroyed humanity in the Terminator movies. This stuff is real, folks.

Artificial Intelligence Penetrates Human Society

AI is everywhere but most people are unaware of it. Here’s a random article I found today in the Guardian’s Tech section titled, “These Engineers Are Developing Artificially Intelligent Hackers.” An excerpt:

“Could you invent an autonomous hacking system that could find and fix vulnerabilities in computer systems before criminals could exploit them, and without any human being involved? That’s the challenge faced by seven teams competing in Darpa’s Cyber Grand Challenge in August.

“Each of the teams has already won $750,000 for qualifying and must now put their hacking systems up against six others in a game of ‘capture the flag.’ The software must be able to attack the other team’s vulnerabilities as well as find and fix weaknesses in their own software – all while protecting its performance and functionality. The winning team will walk away with $2m.

“’Fully automated hacking systems are the final frontier. Humans can find vulnerabilities but can’t analyse millions of programs,’ explained Giovanni Vigna, a professor of computer science at University of California Santa Barbara, speaking at the RSA security conference in San Francisco.

“Robo-hackers could be incredibly useful for organizations trying to defend their network to quickly identify and patch problems before anyone exploits them to either steal data or disrupt online services – without having a team of highly skilled human ‘uber-hackers’ in house.

“Outside of the Cyber Grand Challenge, other groups are working on hacking machines powered by artificial intelligence. Konstantinos Karagiannis, chief technology officer of BT Americas, has been building a hacking system that uses neural networks to simulate the way the human brain learns and solves problems.

“’Using this approach a security scanner could identify intricate flaws using creative approaches you would have never thought of,’” explained Karagiannis. Karagiannis hopes to demonstrate a proof-of-concept by the summer of 2016.

“While robo-hackers could provide security professionals with a valuable weapon in their armory, the risk is that they could fall into the wrong hands. Karagiannis told us that he wouldn’t be surprised if criminal hackers had appropriated these techniques ‘within a year.’

“Alex Rice, co-founder of security company HackerOne, agrees.’“Anything that can be used to defensively find vulnerabilities can be used by criminals – they all end up becoming a double-edged sword,’ he told the Guardian.”

Is it such a big leap from AI neural networks to an AI controlled society? Not if human beings give away their power and abandon their higher selves – but it would mean the eventual death of the human race if we adopted this policy collectively.

Beyond Transhumanism and AI

So what can we do about it? Well, you can tell people to read stuff, or watch certain shows or movies, but the best thing individuals can do is to stay heart-centered, meditate, and be compassionate to our fellow human beings and to all life on the planet. If enough of us do this we can jump-start the ascension process. One channeled message I read said that if even one person truly ascended, it would negate all of the other negative forces trying to bring the collective downward onto the wrong path.

One thing I’m sure of is that the power of our collective consciousness to co-create with Source is astonishing. Seven billion of us are unstoppable! Hell, even a few million of us are unstoppable. Even if you don’t believe in ETs or life on other planets, and think these whistleblowers are full of it, you can count on your own personal connection to Source. We can use that in our daily lives to personally grow spiritually and compassionately. My guidance tells me with a certainty of 100% that this is the way to go both individually and collectively. The biological-spiritual path of evolution is a can’t miss! And when we do “graduate,” we get to associate with other enlightened societies that have also made it past the “barrier” and who have ascended. I’m told that it’s so great we can’t even imagine it – far greater than a pitiful de-evolution based on a transhumanist agenda.

So that’s the real battle, folks. The game has expanded now to the galactic level. The battle isn’t between good and evil, but evolution based on a soulless artificiality, or ascension to higher and higher levels of creativity and power. The AI route leads to enslavement, the biological route leads to freedom and empowerment.

It’s up to us.

The good news is that consciousness-assisted technologies have already been developed. By this I mean technologies that interface harmlessly with biology, and allow biological beings to live more freely and effortlessly in the physical universe. We don’t have to choose the degraded technological route!

John Podesta Briefs President Obama

John Podesta is the Chairman of the 2016 Hillary Clinton presidential campaign, and previously served as Chief of Staff to President Bill Clinton and Counselor to President Barack Obama. In that capacity, in 2009, he delivered a briefing to President Obama about the trans-national security state and the UFO issue, written by Dr. Steven Greer, head of the Disclosure Project. You can find the briefing here:

It is well worth reading, and shows once again that the fossil fuel matrix we have been living in is an outdated and unaffordable burden to a civilization that has the capacity to expand far beyond it.
